To (ZZZ whom it may concern: a V i Be it known that I, JAMEs T. R51, a citi- Zen'of the United St-ates; residing at G2L1Il1): bell, in the county of Hunt and State of Texas have invented a new and useful- Oil Heater, of which the following is a specification. V V r This invention relates to oil stove constructions and more particularly to a heat ing stove especially designed for burning crude oils. r v

The primary objectofthe invention is to provide a stove of this character wherein V the oilfed to the burners-may be accurately controlled and regulated.)

Another object of the invention is to provide a stove having a. pluralityof indepen'd 'ent oil feed pipes, the burners which? are supported at the ends ofthefeed pipes being such as to eliminate the use of wicksior similarfeeding means With the foregoing and other objects in viewwhich will appear as the description proceeds the invention residesin the com bination and arrangement ofpaifts and in the details of action hereii "l ter descrihedand claimed, it being understood" that changesin the precise, embodiment of the invention herein clisclosed, may be made within the scope of what is Cl211I11G(1,,W1tl1011t departing from the spirit of the invention.

includes an outerwall 6 andan inner wall 7 7 the walls of the stove beingconstructed:

preferablvof sheet metal. However it is to be: understood that any suitable material may be employedin the construcrni-on ef the stove without departingfrom the spirit of. the invention. I I

As shown the walls 6 and Tare subistantially cone shaped, reach wall. being 7 5 curved portion the curvedp'ortions being 1 formed with anupper curved portion 8 and intern AMES, Year, or CAMPBELL, TEXAS.

connected by the relatively straight walls 10, the outer curved wall! 9 terminating in a relatively straight pipe 11 to permit the heat and products of combustion to pass from the stove.

V :The inner and outer curved walls 8 and 9 cooperate to provide chambers adaptedto trap portions of the heatand products of combustion passing through the stove to cause the stove to become thoroughly heated, thereby increasing the heating qualities of thestove. Q

.The lower-portion of the stove is closed by the bottonr wall 12 to which the walls 6 and 7 are boltechas-at 13, so that the wall 12 not only forms the bottom wall of the stove, but at the same time provides a suppor for the walls of the stove. i

fuqpported adjacent to the stove at point in proximity to the upper end thereof,

are the oil tanks 1% that are held in suitable spaced relation with each other by means of the bar '15 that is formed with an opening to accomodate the pipe section 11 to prevent movement of the tanks and insure the tanks being held in their upright position.

Communicating with each tank is a pipe I 16 which communicates with the pipes 17 and 18, through the union 19, there being provided avalve 20' within the pipes 16 to control the passage of oil from the tank, while thepipes 17 and 18 are provided with valves 21 and 22 to control the passage of fuel through the pipes 17 and 18. The lower ends of the pipes 17 and 18. communi-' cate with the pipes 23 and 2 1 respectively, which pipes have connection with the vertical pipes 25. that support the burners proper 26, theburners 26 being positioned between the walls of the stove proper to supplythe heating compartments of the stove with the necessary heat. 7

Each burner includes a body portion 27 formed with an inner wall 28.,the inner wall beinecurved upwardly and formed with an opening 29'to hermitfuel to flow from the pipe 25 associated therewith to, the body portion or cup formed between the walls. 27 and 28, where, the same may be burned.

It might be further stated that openings 30 are formed in the bottom wall 12 to admit air to the stove and insure perfect combustion of the fuel. From the foregoing it willbe obvious that the heat from the stove sud .disposed in the heating compartments, each .perature is moderately cold, it is obvious that one or two burners should be lighted. I claim: V L'An oil burning stove-includingen outer wvall and an'inuer Wall, the Walls being spaced epartgto provide compartments, the

upper ends of the wels being curved to provide heating ehambers,oi]. burners supported 'Within' the compartments, and means for 15 supplying fuel to the oil burners.

2. An 011 burning stove lnoluding an outer .Wall and an lnner wall, the Walls being spaced-apart to provide compartments, said Walls being formed with curved upper portions provlding heating chambers, burners of the hurners including a cup and e'pipe disposed substantially centrellyof the corn partments 'andineans for supplying liquid fueljto the burners V v I 3. An loil burning f stove includingan outer Wall. and an inner Witll, thevvallsbeing spa eed' lpartfto-provide heating compart ments, the Walls being formed with curved portions at their upper endsto provide heating chambers, oil tanks supported "adj a cent" 'tothe upper portion of the stove, pipes in communlcetion with the tank's and extend ing dowinv'zir'dly.therefrom, said pipes iezn.
